Jack (Dustin Milligan), a cheerful snowman, magically springs to life after Kathy (a lonely café owner) wraps a scarf around him. Despite his frosty physique and lack of proper clothing, Jack quickly wins over Kathy—and the entire New England-style town—with his childlike charm and boundless optimism.
As the town’s friendly snowman-turned-heartthrob, Jack takes it upon himself to help Kathy heal from her late husband’s passing, making this frosty romance as heartwarming as it is eccentric.

The film leans fully into its absurdity, delivering laughs through moments like the town sheriff (Craig Robinson) hunting for a “mysterious streaker”—who is, of course, Jack. Over-the-top gags, such as a doctor’s hilarious attempt to examine Jack’s sub-zero body, keep the mood delightfully silly.
From Jack’s obsession with sugar and ice cubes to the unforgettable line, “You can’t defibrillate a snowman,” Hot Frosty revels in its ridiculousness while offering the warm fuzzies of a holiday classic.
If you’re searching for something fresh and delightfully bizarre this holiday season, Hot Frosty is the perfect choice. It’s a story of love, healing, and abs on a snowman—what’s not to love? Get ready to laugh and feel all the festive feels with this frosty yet heartwarming rom-com!
